Ever since I got a mechanical heart valve on September 21, 2016, I can hear and feel the beat of my heart. That’s why I appreciated every beat of this heart-felt message:
I know, with every beat of my heart, that sharing your thoughts and feelings with a group can be good for your heart and soul. So, yesterday, I posted this on the Facebook page of the Zipper Sisters (a private group for women born with heart conditions):
To my sisters with a mechanical heart valve: Can you hear and/or feel the valve (like I do)? What’s that like for you?
All the different hearts that answered my questions helped my heart and my soul feel heard, connected, supported, and quieter.
As my heart was beating yesterday, I noticed and captured every image in today’s post.
Because every beat of my heart values honesty and authenticity, I confess that I did not take those last two photos — I found them here and here.
Every beat of my heart loves this performance by Gladys Knight & the Pips:
Every beat of my heart feels gratitude for all who helped me create this post and — of course! — for you.
Hello from the Heartland, Ann. For you, that’s everywhere.
For you, Mark, this heart says “Hello” and “Thanks.”
“Zipper Sisters” would be an amazing name for an amazing band. Being able to feel every beat of your heart would be an advantage in helping you stick to the beat.
In fact I think you could say that if you were to form a band with your fellow Zipper Sisters your performances would be fit to beat the band.
Your performances on WordPress are fit to beat the band, Chris.
Long may you dance to the beat
Long may you dance, also, Derrick.
There’s always a beat for you Ann 💛
There’s always a beat for you, too, Val. <3
Without our heartbeats we would be dead, just saying…………………..
My heartbeats with love and compassion and kindness, well I hope it does
Yours beats with love and compassion and kindness as well
Thank you, Joanne, for the love, compassion, and kindness you show with every beat of your heart.
Shore nice to sea and reed you here Ann. 😉 <3
